Memory Lane - Baby Praline

Mom Paula: No walk down memory lane would be complete without pictures of Baby Praline (or Pralinette as Khyra would say). I am so glad that I had a good camera 15 years ago and took pictures of Praline that have lasted that I could digitize. Unfortunately, I don't have any videos of her as a kitten, but these pictures tell a lot of stories. I hope you enjoy them as much as I do.

I am supposed to pick up Praline's ashes today. I know this afternoon is going to be tough, so all of your purrs and prayers are appreciated.

It is difficult, but once I got my "baby" back home, something just felt right again. I knew they were safely back with me.Yes, there was a whole new round of tears to shed, yet there was this calm feeling inside that they were now safe at home with me. We are still here for you, sending love and hugs. And we are all just a phone call away.Love,ML

Hang tough as my boys would say Paula. It will slowly get better. Takes time, and you are doing good with the memories. Being able to talk about the lost one publicly is a good start. Take it one day at a time and treasure the memories.

It is one of the hardest things to do but when you get her home with you we are sure you will feel more at peace. She will always be there for you to talk to and to watch over you.We send you love and whisker kissesLuv Hannah and Lucy xx xx

Such wonderful baby photos! We love the one where Praline is bunny kicking the bunny! And of course the one where's she's hanging over the couch. All the photos are terrific and we're so glad you have them to remember her by.

Oh, Praline's mom...we are soo behind in visiting but could not let another day pass without giving you a long distance hug. There is nothing sweeter than baby photos, and if you are like our Teri, you will find comfort in just touching the little box or the urn that Sweet Praline's ashes are in...somehow you can still communicate with her that way...

We are so belated in our condolences to you over the loss of your Sweet Praline. We will miss her very much. Thank you for sharing so many wonderful memories of your sweet girl with us this week. They are lovely and inspiring. We hope those memories are bringing you smiles and comfort during this hard time.

We are sending you many purrs and prayers today especially. It will be hard to pick up Sweet Praline, but we hope you'll be comforted having her home with you where she belongs. purrrrrrrrrs

Oh Paula, I am sorry we are so late getting here. I know this was a hard afternoon for you. We are sending tons of purrs to you and hugs too. This is the hardest thing of the process. Love the baby pictures. Please take care and know we are there with you in our thoughts.

Me and momma are thinking of you! We misses Sweet Praline so furry much and we knows you do too mom Paula. Momma says you will so much betters when you has her ashes, at least that is how it was for her and daddy. They still hurted but having her in any form felt better. We are sending you lots of love and glad you were able to come by and sees my post I did for my sweet sweet furriend, she will always be loved and live on in many hearts!

She was always a gorgeous, stunning girl=such an exquisite and adorable bundle of baby fur!...Picking up her ashes will not be an easy task, but as you are discovering, there is freedom in letting go for both of you and having this small part of her will no doubt bring you comfort in an unexpected way...My thoughts and prayers are with you and I know your beautiful angel is always with you too...Blessings to you, Paula...xoxo...J
